For Smoking Cessation "I have been using the Nicorette lozenges for a while now and they do work in easing the cravings and keeping me off the darts. I do wish however that they would make the plastic container more user friendly. The container's design makes it hard for the lozenges to come out. It's very frustrating. Easier to reach for a cigarette."

For Smoking Cessation "Utterly and completely useless, did not help me stop smoking at all. I'm now using tobacco free nicotine pouches (snus?) that are actually weaker than the 4mg gum, but do an infinitely better job. I am convinced that NRT is a scam by the pharmaceutical companies."

For Smoking Cessation "I find the actual opening of the product a problem. It is not designed for easy access. I have arthritis in my hands and wonder if you are developing a product that is more user-friendly. Thanks! I haven't had a chance to use it enough to give an evaluation of its effectiveness...and hope I can find something that works! The "ease of use" is most problematic for me."

For Smoking Cessation "I have smoked between one pack and two packs a day for 54 years. Even the stroke nine years ago wouldn't get me to stop smoking. One of my songs had the formative line of "And a cigarette is my best friend". After the stroke, I had to take SSDI early and could not reach my full retirement age. Therefore, my fixed income is quite low and I qualify for section 8 housing which requires no smoking anywhere on campus at any time. One offence and you're out. When I got contacted by my preferred complex, I knew I had to quit or go homeless. Well, it's about time anyway…After trying a few other flavors of the Nicorette, none of them were even decent except the cinnamon which is EXCELLENT! Not only that, it is an extraordinarily good gum. My chewing gum doesn't lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight. After 10 days I have cut my smoking in half with very little effort. Zero is coming soon…My only complaint is consistency–some tingle, some burn and some do nothing at all."

For Smoking Cessation "There are much better and cheaper alternative nicotine chewing gum brands. This is just profiteering of people trying to save their own lives. The gum isn't very good quality and the packaging is ridiculous."

For Smoking Cessation "Great product only the lozenge container is of a poor design. Sometimes you have to shake the thing several times just to get one lozenge out. Frankly it's quicker to pull out a cigarette."

For Smoking Cessation "Buying the gum with a 5-dollar off coupon is great but the coupon inside expired in 2021. This is 2023. It is a false advertisement."
